More quotes by Alanis Morissette
I would not have discredited every one of their compliments. It was your approval I wanted, your congratulations.
Alanis Morissette
I'm doing it because I choose it. And if it's not working, I can make a change.
Alanis Morissette
Let's grease the wheel over tea, let's discuss things in confidence. Let's be outspoken, let's be ridiculous, let's solve the world's problems.
Alanis Morissette
I've been really enjoying writing articles and writing music and music for movies.
Alanis Morissette
What part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept? What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget?
Alanis Morissette
When pain brings you down, don't be silly, don't close your eyes and cry, you just might be in the best position to see the sun shine.
Alanis Morissette
I think when someone blindly projects and it's showing up in the form of envy or hate - and I actually think they're synonymous - that's when I feel the most afraid and disconnected and vulnerable. Like whenever I don't feel safe in my own hands, in terms of my not being tender or merciful with myself, or when we're treating each other that way.
Alanis Morissette
A good man often appears gauche simply because he does not take advantage of the myriad mean little chances of making himself look stylish. Preferring truth to form, he is not constantly at work upon the facade of his appearance.
Alanis Morissette
In my opinion, I think sarcasm and humor in a song, without turning it into a novelty song, is really charming.
Alanis Morissette
My parents offered me the idea of ceilinglessness. There was no limit in terms of what was possible no messages sent to me to say that I couldn't do anything.
Alanis Morissette
The thing I always default to is that I'll always be here to write songs.
Alanis Morissette
I don't want to be your other half. I believe that one and one make two.
Alanis Morissette
I'm saying what a lot of people would want to say but are too embarrassed.
Alanis Morissette
I can't not write, if I don't then I get really depressed.
Alanis Morissette
Anytime there's separatism going on. It happens all the time, because the illusion before us is that we are separate. It gives us this sense of egoic identity, which is lovely in its own way.
Alanis Morissette
I rejected the God that was portrayed as masculine and judgmental and cruel at times. The concept of us bring not worthy to receive him is something I used to say every Sunday in church, and eventually I just couldn't say it with any conviction.
Alanis Morissette
There's a continuity between what I care about in any form: I care about it in my music, in article-writing, in how I dress, in how I live, in my relationships, in how I navigate paparazzi, how I decorate my home. There's such a continuity between everything that I don't really care what form it shows up in.
Alanis Morissette
I just feel compelled to continue to be transparent. It just really levels the playing field and eradicates the shame that I have, or that one might have, about being human. So I'm going to just keep going.
Alanis Morissette
I think everyone's hungry for the truth
Alanis Morissette
When we [people] are operating from the belief that we're not connected, it feels so dangerous and scary and vulnerable and awful.
